JERUSALEM (WNS) — Four terrorists penetrated into Kibbutz Shamir at the foot of the Golan Heights killing three women before they were killed in turn in a battle with kibbutz members. Two of the terrorists were killed almost instantly by Uzi Tzur, a paratrooper who was a member of the kibbutz. The other two with¬ drew to the kibbutz bee-house and killed the three women, two of them members of the kibbutz - Edna Mor, 20, mother of one child, and Shoshana Galili, 60, a grandmother. The third was a 22-year-old volunteer from New Zealand. The third terrorist was killed by the kibbutz members while the fourth died when the explosives he was carrying blew up. Army units also rushed to the scene. Gen. Mordechai Gur, Chief of Staff, said the terrorists entered from Lebanon dressed as "hippies" in civilian clothes. He said they found documents on them showing they had five targets, including Shamir, although it was not known if they had planned to attack all five. The terrorists also had a large quantity of explosives, sub-machine guns, hand grenades and ammunition. In Damascus, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Com¬ mand led by Ahmed Jibril, the same group responsible for the Kiryat Shemona massacre, took credit for the attack.
WASHINGTON (WNS) — Syrian President Hafez Assad, interviewed on American Television, said that Syria has gained in its disengagement agreement with Israel a three-step movement by which Israel will pullout of all Arab territory it occupied on the 1967 Six Day War. He said disengagement "constitutes a step which should lead to the next stage and this stage in turn should lead to the full withdrawal of Israel from our occupied territories and to the restoration of the national rights of the Arab people of Palestine." Meanwhile Sen. Henry M. jackspri (D. Wash j warned that the "heavy Soviet presence in Syria makes; the disengagement agreement accord ''very fragile."

Nixon Leaves Israel, Promises Aid And Nuclear Technology
JERUSALEM (WNS) — President Nixon left Israel after a 25 - hour visit in which he promised lpng- - term military and economic aid and that Israel would receive peaceful nuclear technology. At a state dinner given him in the Knesset, Nixon; stressed that his travels to. Arab countries would in no circumstances lead anyone to conclude that America's friendship and support for Israel is any less. He said U.S. support of Israel was strong before his Administration and will
continue to be after he leaves office. But he said Israel has a choice now of either standing firm and accepting the status quo or it can take a bolder course and recognize "that continuous war in this area cannot be a solution to Israel's survival. Nixon at the dinner also paid tribute to former Premier Golda Meir. He also praised the contributions of Jews in America and noted that Dr. Henry A. Kissinger was not < named Secretary'of State because he was a Jew but because he was the best man
for the job and has proven this since taking up the post. Israeli President Ephraim Katzir in a toast to Nixon praised the American President and also noted the parallels between the U.S. arid Israel as democracies which were settled by im¬ migrants, and had been havens, for the homeless and hopeless. He also noted that both countries shared a pioneering spirit.

"It ap¬ pears," she asserted in a letter to INS Commissioner Leonard. Chapman, "that whatever additional action
INS has taken was hot the' result of a more vigorous and systematic investigation but was solely in reaction to my initial inquiries or in response to them."

CAPITOL SPOTLIGHT
De Funis Case Arguinents Make It Historic Issue
(Article Three) by JOSEPH POLAKOFF (Copyright 1974, JTA, Inc.)
With the U.S. .Supreme Court haying ruled his complaint was moot because he was being graduated regardless of any decision it made, Marco DeFunis, Jr.'s case against the University of Washington Law School has passed into legal history as an indecisive and
I preliminary lawsuit of, the
crisis in opportunities for a
•I professional education in
I America. Nevertheless, the
issues, and the arguments
! about them appear, to form
. an unshakeable foundation
for the future case on which
the high court will ultimately
make its definitive decision.
Justice William Brennan
described the issues as
■', "sharply defined and fully
canvassed." The same can
be said for the arguments which were; prepared by some of America's leading legal scholars including former Special Presecutor Archibald Cox of Harvard who backed the school, and Yale's Alexander Bickel who supported DeFunis.
In his preview of the case for the American Association of Law Schools, the American Law Institute and the American Bar
Association, University of Virginia Law School. Professor D. Brock Hornby defined "the precise issue" as being "whether the University of Washington School of Law can take race into account in selecting the members of its entering class in order to achieve minority representation in the law school'' and posed the question as being "is reverse discrimination
constitutional?" The significance of the case, Hornby pointed out, is "what , flexibility is open to higher education generally and professional schools in particular, to increase the representation of minority groups in their student bodies." (In this connection, he noted parenthetically that the enrollment of Black and other minority freshmen appears to be slowing).
The opposing views are first seen in the clash bet¬ ween DeFunis' lawyer, Josef Diamond of Seattle, and Washington State's Attorney General Slade Gorton. Preferential treatment for minority applications, Diamond argued, violated DeFunis' right to equal protection of the laws. Automatic classification by race, without attention to
